Huge respect for becoming a serious player in the car industry with ZERO history behind it. What are manufacturers doing when a company can go from a modified electric BMW 3 series to one of the most respected electric cars in just a few years!! Greetings from Croatia
I love your videos man.
Awesome guy. Making a great company with great people providing great jobs.
and It's not yust that.. with one car he beats all the competition even when they have experience for 50 years in car production and with much more money and thousands of engineers..
vrhunska firma, vrhunska ljudi i vrhunski CEO...moj naklon Mate
Awesome video. Mate Is the man. Inspiring! Go Mate and team!
Mate and Christain are underrated.
By whom?
compare to Elon
This is a really good explanation of CF mfg. Design, positive plug making, tool making, fabric cutting, lay up,cure,trim and drill, finish and paint.
How old is this dude!!?? Wtf am I doing with my life...
I believe he is 29. Mate is an incredible person and if you want to be like him you have to be brilliant, fearless and lucky.
Trent Kreitler lol I am 29 as well. So impressive. He is doing so many amazing things.
Easy. Step one. Have money
iiCUBE OiD watch the first video and you'll see why you're wrong.
@@Q8Police777 he didnt have it at the beginning
That is awesome...would love to work there.
Awesome content Drive!
Great series!
Ma svaka cast, sto god da je, firma je hrvatska, radna mjesta su tu. Ovakvo sto vidjeti u RH je lijepo. Samo naprijed.
Bravo Mate!
I love what u are doing, u are an amazing man mate! Love from Kosovo ❤️🇦🇱
Elegant work guys ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Good stuff mate
Great! thanks for sharing
Good stuff!
1:26 Car girls are not weird, they are a rare gift from God
you know, they might not even care about cars? it could be just "work"
@@gwot no pls, let me live in my fantasy
@@nomad6337 why is that even a fantasy anyway? to me it's like looking for a male trait in a girl... girls don't like guys who like makeup, so why do you like car girls?
@@gwot while historically cars were predominantly something asoociated with males, thats not the case anymore where male and females have more of a choice in what they are interested in. Besides that its something about being relatable, having someone that shares your views and passion and interests is something the soul yearns for
@@nomad6337 cars are still dominated by males, by a huge margin. Regardless, I understand your points, they just so happen to be opposite of mine. I don't look for similarities, I believe in opposites attract, I like a girl that's "girly" and have her own, different, interests. All the girls with the same interests as me became my bro and I can't see them any other way, that's just me. Thank you for your explanation though!
Svaka ti cast druze. Iako sam Srbin,ponosan sam!
Wow, where has this been on youtube? Great. Women are best for layups.
I’m sorry that I cannot give you and Mate more than one like.
is that solid block for the carbon fiber mold, foam or plastic
this is part 3, but you didn't link to part 1 and 2 in the description, nor end cards?
something about girls working on carbon fibers that turns me on
*something about girls.
They know how to make that carbon rigid ;)
There are some other things they could make rigid as well
Beautiful women too
This guy is definitely inspired by Koenigsegg. What an achievement making the most powerful production car of any category.
srinitaaigaura totally yeah! Though it’s still too early days to say Rimac makes the most powerful car, Tesla’s Roadster specs are roughly the same and more likely than not the Tesla 0-100km/h of 1.9 is with no ‘one-foot-rollout’ whereas Rimac’s 0-100km/h definitely is. Aside from this, both cars are only prototypes at best, so the upgrades will likely make the specs even better. All the same: good competition breeds good products and Rimac certainly isn’t slacking in that department!
I doubt. 10000 NM wheel torque is around what hypercars make in 2nd gear at the wheels if you take all gearing into account. The actual numbers may be around 1100-1300 Nm Torque and a max of 1200-1300 HP - they may have gone for the 1 MW number. The 0-100 time is half a second better than the best times of the P1 and LaFerrari so I guess the power to weight is also better, maybe 0.70 to 0.8 HP/Ton - this much power is easily enough to get up to 260 mph +. Given the size of the battery and the weight of the car, I do not expect the Roadster to beat the Agera RS from 60 mph upwards either or the Regera, but it might just edge the Bugatti Chiron (though it is close), but the relatively cheap price can't be beat. Definitely not the C_Two, they're using F1 grade cells and the cost of that is probably more than the Roadster. So it's not a 1:1 ratio like the Rimac C_Two. That 8.9 second quarter mile is all due to the gains made in 0-60 mph, which looks like a whole second faster than the competition. Musk also cleverly ignores the initial rollout, so the actual time is probably around 9.2 seconds.
@@srinitaaigaura had to stop reading when you started talking about torque
Yes, I'm a geek. You might not know - take the Laferrari. It produces 900 Nm of torque, which in first gear (multiplied by first gear ratio x final drive) = 900 x 3.08 x 4.38 or 12141 Nm of torque with only rear wheel drive. In second gear it is still making 8600 Nm wheel torque. HP = Torque x RPM / 5252 The Agera RS for comparison, makes 1370 x 3.4 x 3.13 = 14580 Nm torque in 1st gear and 9780 Nm in 2nd gear. So Elon Musk's claims are impressive yes, but he's hiding the devil in the details. The roadster probably makes about 1100 Nm torque and around 1 MW (1360) HP at the most. It suggests that the Roadster is at the most in the same ballpark as the Koenigsegg and can give the Bugatti Chiron a run for its money.
@@srinitaaigaura so you are saying despite the fact that c2 and roadster now have similar stats, c2 will actually be much better?
Hey guys, why is the 4th video private? I'm unable to watch it. Can someone please help?
I do from moulding ,layout to the moulding using carbon prepeg,to finish product ..all the step i knew.
love EVs.
i wanna work there
this is croatia, if you don't care about the pay, go for it
@@majkutisusernameom it certainly seems like a wonderful place
that sure is
@@majkutisusernameom Doesnt mean Mate doesnt pay well if you're smart enough....
Super Interesting to hear the Christian Van Koneasig(sorry, I can’t spell) gets parts from Rimac. I’d really like to know what. Those to could be amazing friends or foes.
koenigsegg
Pretty sure Christian said he gets his battery packs and technology for his cars from rimac
Battery packs and electric motors for the Regera
Adil Malik seems likely.
Adil Malik seems likely
Imagine Rimac, Christian and Musk collaborating!
Rimac and Christian already collaborating
One thing with sharing information about manufacturing - if others get in the game, the size of the market increases, because the product (in this case carbon fibre composite high stress components) gain more acceptance in the industry. The whole supply then has bigger demand and sales volumes. This is what Tesla proved.
I'm pretty sure now they are using 3d print for moulds. It's easier and needs less time.
He is Elon of Europe :) great vision
Inside Pagani next?
@@jka2586 my moms dead
Очень хочется овладеть знаниями о опытом как у этой компании
Will it catch fire?
Mogu li u vas felgu zavarit?
to asu :D
Varenje felgi im je ono baš nešto što vole radit.jedino moraš obadvije jer ne rade samo jednu !!!
Mate is cool but i'm still in love with Christian
Sounds like Christian Von koenigsegg
hot girls, working on car parts... Hmm ... i can sail with that boat away :)
This cars are so well built... Better than Tesla
Christian von koiensieggs twin!
Where's the 3d printer
He's just like von Koenigsegg... Except that he has hair, is from Croatia and doesn't built cars with a combustion engine.
Uh, can I get a job working with the carbon fiber ladies?
Shouldn't the CF techs be wearing PPE? Gloves and mask at the very least? Carbon fibre isn't exactly nice
They need to buy/use the new metal 3D printers.
Elon musk of England.... WooW
Come one no secrets are in this video stop putting it in your title
Wonder how much salomondrin invested
0
I bet he approves this message!
salomondrin becomes boring and repetitive
The f35 is made from the same prepreg and f1 cars.. there is no plasticic in prepreg period. Honestly at 1000 mph, the plastic would melt fucko...
The epoxy that prepreg is impregnated with is a plastic, it's just a thermoset plastic as opposed to thermoplastic like nylon, abs, ect. The formula can be designed for high temp applications and in carbon fiber parts acts as the matrix which gives the carbon support and structure
I like rivarly betwen tesla and rimac.
Why does he speaks like christian von koenigsegg
Plastic parts, what? How is that a good thing?
Kevin Parks carbon fiber is mainly plastic with a lil carbon in it
just reality of mass-production, so that you can sell cars at prices people will buy, or components at prices companies want to buy
Because you can make a lot of components thinner, lighter and smaller with plastics, as well as friction weld complex plastic assemblies together to make single components that are impossible in metal. Modern automotive engines for example, would not be possible without engineering plastics. Next time you get a chance take a look at a complex plastic molding, like the intake manifold of a modern engine. They are incredible.
Because plastic is cheap and easy to make into parts
How is high-tech a good thing? Seen many MC drivers with helmets in steel? Composite materials and industrial plastics are lighter for the same strength. And depending on design, you can have them absorb lots of vibrations, while still being very stiff.
Higher production, lower quality materials. This doesn’t sound like a move toward the high end market but a target at Tesla level product intent.
They will produce it for other brands or for their next high volume cars. You cannot put parts like this into high volume number cars. To make part like that it can take some days and you need couple of thousands of it. Now do the math. That's way low volume number cars are so expensive.
They need high volume customers to get enough income to make the investments needed for building high-end custom parts. With the machines costing many millions, you can't rely on a few high-end customers to bring in enough money.
90% Woman car must be crap
Either you stay exclusive with the materials on the planet that are available to you or you compromise both the integrity and the value of the vehicle mentioned. Look at PAGANI, there are no shits given. IT COSTS WHAT IT COSTS... No plastice.. and no carbon fiber even with the perpreg is not mostly plastic. If that where a fact why even use carbon and titanium in the first place.. they are getting cheep, and cheep means shitty....
You're an idiot. You can't be a profitable supplier and lose thousands of dollars on every part because you deliver parts produced with technologies meant for development and small series production. And nobody ever said they were going to use those parts on their own cars.. because that obviously wouldn't be possible as r&d costs for high the high production volume parts would be far too high to ever use them in a small number such as in their own vehicles. You are just a pretentious idiot who has no idea how automotive production works.
all carbon fiber is impregnated with plastic, what you don't know that there are 1000 types of plastic and 1000 ways of setting that material into shape and tempering with heat
Sorry I don't believe in super sports cars from Croatia. Just look at those guys hanging in front of their computers 0:31 - later on bragging about how cool they are working at Rimac... eastern european style... :D No, no, good luck...
if porsche believes, who are you?
I'm guessing you're joking. Eastern Europe? Lol. In case you're not joking, your school system failed on you. But still, you have a right to keep your opinions, peace.
